I need only all possible suggestions preferably using java or python, I tried doing it by creating a database of all possible software. But it was not an efficient solution. any suggestions?

I would strongly suggest to use your OS's package manager and distribution format (i.e: apt and deb packages on Debian/Ubuntu; yum and rpm on RedHat/CentOS). Adding a private repository if needed.

If you are using Windows or OSX you could use some of the de-facto package managers like Chocolatey and Brew.

For instance, Chocolatey Package Updater is a solution to update packages automatically.
